Now not entirely sure if the report will hold since I couldn’t find any documents that were usable for this so all there is to go off is the Rafael and Northrup Grumman websites and some news articles mentioning LITENING A-A mode. (With a bonus DCS video just to show how it would work not as actual proof).
But since A-A mode is the selected mode in the new TGP MFD screen for LITENING it would be nice for it to get it’s functionality (or some atleast) for all the aircraft that have LITENING.
But hopefully for the Typhoon we get it working for PIRATE natively, but given the disappointing state PIRATE is in currently I doubt we will get it anytime soon. Like - Eurofighter - Missing PIRATE output MFD screen for a start.
God I want HUD tint on the Typhoon so bad. It got added quickly for the Su-30SM and J-11B but they are really dragging their feet with it for the Typhoon.
They probably put it aside as zero priority and forgot about it, and now they’re focusing on the next updates. And since they see it’s piled up an amount of reports about the Eurofighter, they’ve probably left it alone until the winrate drops below 40% or less, they won’t do anything. Because for them, fixing a plane is all about winrate and completely ignoring the community and the forums. That’s what they’ve been showing and justifying ever since the Eurofighter was released.
Any chance the JDAM-ER can be used/reported for the dual bomb racks? They do use the same MK-82 body as PW4 after all. Also, whats the name/manufacturer of those racks? I wasn’t able to find anything when searching for it.
(On another note, do EFs use JDAM-ER at all? This is the first time I’ve seen that anywhere)
Typhoon FGR4s dropped 2x Paveway IVs from (1 from each aircraft) and hit the exact same spot from high altitude. The first burrowed into the ground to clear away the bedrock, the other destroyed the oil pipeline targets.
